Who should be heldaccountable for our
water quality problems— cities or farms?
Supporters of bothsides made their caseat a recent meeting in
Mankato, Minn.
Story on Page 6A
A traditional bookmark of the end of theharvest season in Minnesota (perhapsnorthern Iowa too?) are lutefisk suppers.With its strong Scandinavian history,Minnesota probably ranks No. 1 in lute-fisk suppers. I’ve never seen evidence tosupport my theory, or disprove it. But it’smy story and I’m sticking with it.
Why? Because Election Day, Nov. 3, wasthe annual lutefisk supper — we say sup-per rather than dinner so excuse my eti-quette — at Vinje Lutheran Church ofWillmar, Minn. Still no boycotts of the fes-tival event; this was their 38th.
All I can say is that it was spectacu-larly good. Perhaps I’m bending theKing’s English, but spectacular it was. Ufda — we’reeven talking repeat servings on lutefisk! Plus ofcourse delicious meatballs (for those too timid toeven nibble a bite of lutefisk), boiled potatoes, corn,cranberry relish, and lots of lefse with brown sugarfor added flavor.
At Vinje the men traditionally take most of thecredit for this amazing smorgasbord, and rightly so.To minimize the potential of “lingering odors” in thechurch kitchen, these men even have their own spe-cially equipped kitchen on wheels — a revamped,enclosed trailer parked conveniently adjacent to thechurch kitchen. Women and children were importanthelpers. This magnificent feed came at a cost of $14.I trust a goodly number of you readers also had theopportunity to indulge in a few church suppers thismonth — and even some lutefisk of your own!Thanks but no thanks?
There is much to be thankful for this season.Incredible yields are old chatter by now. Back onAug. 28 my “Land Minds” lead paragraph read:“Record yields appear to be in the making across theboard for corn, soybeans and sugar beets.” And so ithappened. I also boasted Minnesota’s average stateyield this year would eclipse Iowa. I commented “Ibelieve 185 bu./acre or better could happen thisyear.” It will be a while before official U.S. Depart-ment of Agriculture data tell the real story.
Unfortunately record yields don’t generate recordrevenue. Our cash grain guys are getting clipped thehardest. There’s lots of equity getting chewed up,putting farm lenders in a predicament, too. And the
discontent is likely to be a two- or three-year malaise according to farm econo-mists. There are some respectable profitsto be found for cattle feeders and hog pro-ducers, thanks mostly to considerablycheaper feed costs. Dairy farmers tell meit’s a so-so situation on milk profits thesedays — sure, cheaper feed costs butcheaper milk prices, too. So the crystalball is telling us “least cost” producers arethe likely survivors. That’s really nothingnew.
But it seems to me there has to be somereality with land owners, too. I’m talk-ing a reduction in land rental prices, orat least a flexible rental package that
adjusts with commodity prices and net revenue.Back in October 2014, I wrote a story that asked
the question: Is corn a loser? It was based on thereality that $3.50 corn and $7.50 soybeans wouldn’tbe paying off much of the 2015 debt load. That cer-tainly now appears to be the outlook for 2016, too.
A Clay County (Iowa) Fair visit last year with DanYegge of Ag Performance Inc., Buffalo Center, Iowa,triggered that story. Said Yegge: “We’ve got a lot ofconcerned farmers. Looking at 2015, even with $3.50corn we’re looking at negative cash flows of $150 to$200 per acre.” And look where we are right now.
So what to do? Cheaper production costs are thequick answer. That always triggers lots of ideas,especially trimming land and input costs. Well, goodluck. So far lower fertilizer prices aren’t leading theparade. And based on what I’m hearing, land rentsaren’t free falling either. But one item stirring upeven more conversation this fall is cheaper seed,which leads to talk about non-GMO seed.
I’m told conventional corn is about $75 an acrecheaper than biotech corn. Many of you using biotechare likely using insecticides anyway, and perhapseven at least one herbicide, to better protect againstthose “resistant weed breaks” that keep popping up.
Corn guys who know tell me the challenge in goingconventional is finding the genetics that will deliveras good or better yields than biotech seeds. Who winsthat argument I don’t know, but some tell me genet-ics of both conventional and biotech corn are essen-

LAND MINDS
By Dick Hagen
See HAGEN, pg. 4A
In the world of agricul-tural cooperatives there’snone bigger than Min-nesota-based CHS Inc.According to U.S. Depart-ment of Agriculture data,the energy, grain, food, andfarm supply giant did $42.9billion in business in its fis-cal year 2014.
That makes the mightyCHS bigger than Deere &Co., DuPont, and TysonFoods, and far bigger thanthe No. 2 ag co-op, DairyFarmers of America, withits almost-puny-by-com-parison $17.9 billion in sales.
CHS’s power, however, will be chal-lenged at the co-op’s annual meetingDec. 4 when members vote on changesto its articles and bylaws. The changes,argue CHS bosses, are needed to keepthe co-op growing and “to reinforceCHS’s commitment to its member coop-eratives, agricultural producers andcooperative business structure.”
In short, CHS management believesits 20th century business structureneeds some 21st century tweaking.Many of its “member cooperatives,”however, disagree.
“This feels more like a corporatetakeover,” says Rugby, N.D., co-op man-ager Steve Dockter, who sees the pro-posed changes moving power fromCHS’s 1,100 member “locals”— anessential tenet of cooperative structure— to CHS.
“It boils down to who’s the boss? We
are; we own them.”He’s right; local CHS co-ops
own what they call the“mother ship,” CHS, Inc., anoverarching regional cooper-ative that stitches the localsinto a single, coherent busi-ness structure. For CHS,that’s 625,000 farmers andranchers in 25 states.
Like most ag-centered co-ops, however, CHS’s very sizeand its changing customer
base — a dwindling num-ber of “voting” farmer andrancher “members” and a
growing number of “non-voting” consumer customers — is a bigdriver behind the proposed changes inthe co-op’s rules.
For CHS to remain true to its her-itage, it explains, CHS, Inc. needs toupdate bylaws to ensure locals “operateon a cooperative basis or be an organi-zation primarily owned and controlledby a member cooperative, as deter-mined by the CHS Board of Directors.”
That “as determined by the CHSBoard of Directors” part sticks in thecraw of co-op members like MarkWatne, president of the North DakotaFarmers Union.
“The locals are the owners here,” hesays. “If anyone has a problem withnon-members voting at the local level,the locals can address that, CHS does-n’t need the power to do it.”
Like many, Watne wonders if CHSmanagers understand just what theirproposed changes to the co-op’s bylaws
mean. “Most of these folks came fromcorporations and their ideas have thefeel of ‘corporate’ bylaws. Maybe theydon’t appreciate just how deep in mostmembers’ bones is the idea of local con-trol.”
That principle cooperative element isembodied in the Capper-Volstead Act,the 1922 law that is the Magna Cartaof the U.S. ag co-op movement becauseit allowed ag producers to organize andcollectively approach the market aseither buyers or sellers without violat-ing federal antitrust law.
(One of its namesake authors, Min-nesota Congressman Andrew Volstead,had another law named after him, TheVolstead Act, that wasn’t as successful:in 1919 it ushered in Prohibition.)
If Watne is right, CHS managers andthe co-op’s board of producer-directorswill get a new appreciation of thatdeeply-held belief Dec. 4 becauseanother proposal to be voted on that
day has the co-op dropping any refer-ence to Capper-Volstead. The reason,claims CHS, is that “Given the natureof CHS business, we do not benefitfrom potential protections offeredunder Capper-Volstead.”
Maybe not, says co-op managerDockter, but removal of any referenceto this underpinning law is akin tochanging the Ten Commandments. “Itbasically lays the groundwork for areversal of roles and I don’t think peo-ple want that.”
What members want today andwhat CHS managers think they needfor tomorrow can be the same thing,Dockter explains. “But the one thingeveryone needs to know now is ‘Who’sthe boss?’ We know: It’s us.”

To the Editor: Now is the time for an Al-Corn exit plan for retirement-age owner members.
The ethanol cooperative’s board can come up with an exit plan that pays equi-table value for the shares of those retirement-age members who borrowedmoney to build the plant more than 20 years ago.
Taking such action will leave a majority of members who will support a newplant. This action by our board would make it work for both sides.
The Al-Corn Board of Directors should show us it can take action on thismatter.John SteeleHayfield, Minn.

HAGEN, from pg. 2Atially the same. It’s those“trait” accessories thatramp up the cost — and hopefully provide the pro-tection. Stay tuned. I think the seed industry is in areal struggle these days on conventional versusbiotech.It’s the law
I’ll wrap up with a few laws many of us encounter...• Law of Mechanical Repair: After your hands
become coated with grease, your nose will begin to itch.• Law of Probability: The probability of being
watched is directly proportional to the stupidity ofyour act.
• Law of Bathing: After the body is fully immersedin warm soothing water, the telephone rings.
• Law of Close Encounters: The probability ofmeeting someone you know increases when you arewith someone you don’t want to be seen with.
• Law of Logical Argument: Anything is possible ifyou don’t know what you are talking about. (Thatlaw comes into play routinely with my morning cof-fee crew.)
My wish is that Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 26, will bea wonderful event for you and your family. Remem-ber blessed are they who can laugh at themselves forthey shall never cease to be amused. And here’s afortune cookie for you: It’s not only important to addyears to your life but to also add life to your years!
Finally, my kudos to Managing Editor Tom Royerin last issue of The Land for his honesty about hisdays “playing farmer” with his brother in westernIowa, and for the tender words describing theabsence of his dear father who died earlier this sea-son. Choice memories, Tom, that will always be withyou. Thank you for sharing.

“My state is in a water quality crisis,”said Bill Stowe.
Stowe, the CEO and general managerof Des Moines Water Works, is on a mis-sion to decrease nitrates coming down-stream into his city’s drinking water.
The public utility has filed a federalcomplaint against the Iowa counties ofBuena Vista, Calhoun and Sac, and 10drainage districts they represent. The lawsuitclaims the drainage districts are discharging nitratepollutants into the Raccoon River, the city’s sourcewater, and should be required to get a permit.
Hosted by the Freshwater Society, Stowe gave afree public lecture in Mankato, Minn., on Nov. 4.
Stowe said agriculture must be held accountablefor water quality, noting that it’s extremely impor-tant in both Minnesota and Iowa. To Stowe, thatmeans the days of voluntary water quality effortsshould end and drainage districts in agriculturalland should be point sources that require a permitunder the Clean Water Act.
“This isn’t about being against agriculture, orlawyer versus farmer,” said Stowe.
The lawsuit is in the discovery period of deposi-tions and evidence gathering and slated for federal
court in August 2016. Stoweexpects the loser to file an appeal,predicting that litigation couldtake 10 years.
Should the public utility win,the drainage districts will need a National PollutantDischarge Elimination System permit to dischargewater through tiling systems, explained Stowe.
“Those drainage tiles are point source polluters inour view,” he said.
The next step would be a regulatory process thatStowe is confident will include people in ag, publichealth and environment.
Des Moines draws water from 10,000 square milesof watersheds in the landform called the Des MoinesLobe, relying on the Raccoon and Des Moines riversfor its drinking water. With 30-some counties to
choose from, DMWW chose SacCounty while Buena Vista andCalhoun got pulled in due totopography, said Stowe. A U.S.Geological Survey monitoringstation in the area gave the util-ity a public access point to samplewater from tile outlets.
Des Moines has arguably theworld’s largest nitrate removalfacility, to treat water from theDes Moines and Raccoon rivers. In2015, the facility ran 148 days.
“That’s a record for us,” saidStowe.
The Environmental ProtectionAgency has set the maximum level
of nitrate in drinking water at 10 mg per liter or 10parts per million. Rates higher than that can causeblue baby syndrome in which infants under sixmonths old can die from a lack of oxygen in their blood.
“This (water) is a commodity that’s very importantto us both commercially and in public health,” Stowesaid.
In addition, he noted a record number of beach clo-sures in 2015. Polluted Iowa waterways are up 15percent, and 60 cities in Iowa have reported highnitrate levels, said Stowe.
The Gulf of Mexico’s “dead zone” was measured at6,474 square miles this summer. Excessive amountsof nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus in Missis-sippi River water enter the gulf, causing huge algaeblooms which then die and sink to the ocean floor.Bacteria then decompose the dead algae, removingdissolved oxygen from the water; this lack of oxygenkills fish and other organisms.

COVER STORY, from pg. 6ANational Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
scientists believe this summer’s larger dead zone sizeis due to heavy June rains in the Mississippi Riverbasin. The average size of the dead zone over thepast five years has been about 5,500 square miles.Controversy
Many farmers, commodity and ag groups disagreethat agricultural drainage tiles are point sources ofpollution that require a permit. Stoweis being criticized for pitting urban vs.rural, Iowan vs. Iowan in this lawsuit.
Stowe contends that storm water,wastewater and water utilities areheavily regulated while ag producersget a free pass. The City of Des Moinestests its water for 200 different thingsa day and reports it, he said.
Dennis Mikkelson, a Lake Crystal,Minn., farmer in attendance, ques-tioned Stowe on the detention stan-dard in Des Moines. Stowe answeredthat if there is more than one inch ofrain, the commercial property ownerhas to store the water for 24 hoursbefore releasing it.
Mikkelson further questioned thefact that as an ag producer, he canonly release half inch of water per daywhile the City of Mankato can releasetwo inches of rain per hour through itsstorm drainage.
“Mankato dumps more water in the MinnesotaRiver in one hour than the rest of the county does,”said Mikkelson.
“In a high flow situation,” Stowe responded.An audience member noted that Mankato has 99
storm water ponds to collect water to be released onlow release rates.
Mikkelson said that only three to four inches godown the river each year from his tiling system. Heholds a permit for a tiling system designed to releaseonly a half-inch of water per day.
“When you put in the tile system, you have to abideby the laws,” he said.Economics
Des Moines provides drinking water for 500,000consumers from surface waters in agriculturalwatersheds. The more difficult and costly waterissues to treat are nutrient related — nitrate, phos-phorus and ammonia.
“Our consumers are paying to clean the waterthat’s a cost of production upstream,” said Stowe.
Stowe said he understands tiling is necessary tomake agricultural land productive. The consequenceis that tiling in Iowa is increasing water quantitywhile reducing water quality, and the result is thattiling is bringing more water, more quickly and later-ally into surface waters in the state, he said.
The water released by the drainage districts citedin the lawsuit only have an agricultural source — nosuburban lawns, golf courses or geese to skew
results, Stowe said. Intensive test-ing for a year showed that outletswere discharging water in 20 to 40parts per million on a regularbasis, with a couple 70 parts permillion, he noted.
“We have every intent of holdingthem accountable for downstreamconsequences,” said Stowe.
The cost, he said, is being pusheddownstream. The cost to run thenitrate removal facility in 2014-15was $1,500,000 compared to$908,700 in 2013. The price tag fora new facility is $76 to $183 mil-lion.
Mikkelson said he plans to fol-low up with Des Moines WaterWorks to better learn where thewater is being sampled and how itis being tested. He said that he isalso testing the water coming out
of his own tile system.“Our tiles aren’t that bad of water,” said Mikkelson.
“We’re running at four parts per million. I don’tthink our city sewer is doing that well.”
After the nitrogen is removed from drinking water,the utility has a permit to dump the nitrogen backinto the river downstream. Mikkelson noted that hehad read the utility dumps 25,000 tons of nitrogenper year back into the river. Stowe said that numbermay well be accurate.
“We are seeing millions of tons coming by us,” saidStowe.
According to a document on the Des Moines nitrateremoval facility, returning the nitrate to the riverdoes not impact the nitrate load. As an example, thedaily nitrate load in the Raccoon River can approach700 tons; of this amount, less than 0.1 percent wouldpass through the nitrate removal facility and bereturned to the river. The bigger problem, accordingto Stowe, is the salt that goes into the watershed assalt is used in the nitrate removal process and salt is

According to Iowa State University,nitrate concentration problems in the10,000-square-mile Des Moineswatershed are due to corn and soy-beans, said Stowe. Iowa has 13 mil-lion acres of corn, 9.7 million acres ofsoybeans and 21 million hogs, com-pared to three million humans. In1950, Iowa had 100 million animalsand in 2007, 9.5 billion animals.Stowe said there is little local controlover livestock operators in Iowa.
The Iowa Nutrient Reduction Strat-egy as a voluntary process is not get-ting the job done. Prompted by theEPA Gulf Hypoxia Action plan, thestrategy is based on science that 92percent of the nitrate problem is fromunregulated ag sources and eight per-cent is from wastewater treatmentplants and factories, said Stowe.
“Science excellent, policy horrible,”he said. “It’s not resourced, it’s notmeasured, there are no time frames,there are no requirements.”
The strategy calls for the reductionof 45 percent of nutrient loads goinginto Iowa waters, the Mississippi Riverand to the Gulf of Mexico. Practices toreduce nutrient runoff such as satu-rated buffer strips, crop rotation, nitro-gen stabilizers, cover crops, con-structed wetlands and bioreactors areboth expensive and voluntary.
“The idea that a public health con-cern should be voluntary to me is notpractical,” said Stowe.
Based on a study from Iowa StateUniversity, reducing 45 percent ofnutrient loads will take a long-terminvestment of $1 to $1.5 billion eachyear over 20 years, Stowe said.
To help implement the NutrientReduction Plan, the Iowa Water Qual-ity Initiative was established in 2013.In July, Gov. Terry Branstad and theIowa Legislature committed $9.6 mil-lion to the initiative. In addition, theIowa Department of Agriculture andLand Stewardship received $6.75 mil-lion for conservation cost share proj-ects. ISU received $1.35 million for itsNutrient Research Center and $1.23
million for a three-year pilot project toquantify infield activities focused onimproving water quality.
Gov. Branstad and Iowa Secretary ofAgriculture Bill Northey said the con-servation practices will take time towork.
“In my business of providing day-to-day drinking water, we don’t havetime,” said Stowe.Minnesota
The Minnesota Department of Agricul-
ture’s Nitrogen Fertilizer ManagementPlan has been revised. The plan is theblueprint to prevent or minimize risks ofnitrogen pollutants in Minnesotagroundwater. Larry Gunderson, MDAagriculture unit supervisor, explainedthat the department is testing privatewells in townships. If high nitrate levelsare found, farmers can implement bestmanagement practices to reduce levels.
“The first three years are voluntary,”said Gunderson. “Then if farmers arenot following the BMPs and thosenitrate levels are high — that’s when itbecomes regulatory.”
So MDA is writing the Nitrogen Fer-tilizer Rule to support the plan. Therule will have two parts: Restrictapplication of nitrogen fertilizer in thefall in vulnerable groundwater areas;and requirements to meet the BMPs ifnitrate levels are high after threeyears.

ST. PAUL — Field pennycress has the potentialto be an economically and environmentally valuablebridge between the fall harvest and the planting ofcorn and soybeans the next year.
Field pennycress is a member of the mustard familyof plants and comes to Minnesota and the Midwestfrom Eurasia. Although FPC is widely considered aweed, it has also been recognized as having potentialfor biodiesel, aviation fuel, and even edible oil. In thatsense it is similar to its plant relative canola.
FPC can seed itself, or be seeded, in the late sum-mer. It will grow under the cool conditions of autumnand survive the winter to start growing again in thespring before many other plants germinate.
Because field pennycress is a winter annual it hasthe potential to act like a cover crop. That means itcan prevent soil erosion and keep excess nitrogenand phosphorous in place rather than in groundand surface waters. But because it has the potentialfor oil production, it is more than a cover crop.Researchers like Don Wyse, professor at the Univer-sity of Minnesota, are calling it a bridge crop.
“A bridge crop is a crop that is planted in the fallin a harvested or standing crop and grows until

PENNYCRESS, from pg. 10Aanother crop is planted into the bridge crop or imme-diately after the bridge crop is harvested,” Wyse said.“The difference between a cover crop and a bridgecrop is that a cover crop is not harvested while abridge crop is harvested for grain or biomass.”
Along with other scientists from the U of M’sDepartment of Agronomy & Plant Genetics andDepartment of Plant Biology, as well as scientistsfrom USDA’s Agricultural Research Service, Wysebeen working to develop improved lines of field pen-nycress for about a decade.
“For years we’ve been asking farmers, ‘Why don’tyou grow cover crops?’” Wyse said. “They always askus, ‘What do you want us to grow and what’s themarket for it?’ It became evident to me that farmersdidn’t have any options. The land grant universities,with their public investment, developed the annualcrops that we have today.
“Now the challenge is for those universities todevelop the next generation of crops that are perennialor winter annual and that provide ecological servicesas well as economic opportunities for rural Minnesota.Farmers won’t have these options unless someonesteps forward and develops them and also develops theenterprises that make them economically viable.”Forever Green
FPC is one of a number of crops being developed bythe U of M’s Center for Integrated Resources andAgricultural Management under the auspices of theForever Green Agriculture Initiative. Wyse is co-director of the center.
Wyse said that development of field pennycress isfurther along than other crops because it has a sim-ple genome that is related to the previous genomemapping of Arabidopsis, another member of themustard family.
“The FPC program now has thousands of new linesthat have been developed in the breeding program,”he said. “Since we have sequenced the genome ofpennycress it means we have the ability to compareit to the Arabidopsis genome in which all of the func-tional genes have been identified. So we now knowall of the genes in pennycress that control floweringtime, dormancy, oil, etc.
“This allows the breeders to determine whichcrosses contain the traits of interest without plantingthem out in the field. This speeds up the developmentof the new improved varieties. The breeding programis focused on traits regarding seed dormancy, oil con-tent, early maturity, rapid emergence, yield, shortstature, and non-lodging, among other things.”
Late this summer the FPC development teamoverseeded a variety into 15 acres of standing corn.They used a highboy-style tractor to get above thecorn and dragged heavy chains behind the tractor toensure germination.
“We’ve found that to get consistent germinationyou need some form of soil disturbance,” Wyse said.
The FPC germinated before harvest and will con-tinue growing after harvest until freeze-up. As itgrows it will act like a conventional cover crop in thatit will capture nitrate nitrogen and hold the soil in
place. It will also build organic matter. When growthstarts again it will continue to provide those services.
“In Minnesota the period between April and Juneis when we get most of our rain,” Wyse said. “If youdon’t have living material the residual nitrate nitro-
gen will leach down into tile lines or streams. If youkeep the field green that nitrate nitrogen will beheld in place. It will also provide a living cover tohold the soil and phosphorous in place.”
‘What do you want us to grow, and what’s the market?’

PENNYCRESS, from pg. 11AThe Forever Green team is currently working on a
research project to determine just how much N isheld in place by the living pennycress.
Wyse believes part of that N will be capturedwhen the pennycress is harvested. Since the FPCharvest will likely be in early to mid-June Wyseexpects that soybeans will be seeded into the stand-ing FPC in May.
“We call that a relay crop system and we believethat will work best in our shorter growing season,”he said.
Since the FPC has been growing since the previ-ous autumn, Wyse anticipates almost complete sup-pression of weeds.
“We’re really excited about that,” he said. “We’lldramatically reduce herbicide inputs.”Market
Selecting field pennycress varieties that will excelin this cropping system is only part of what needs tobe done if the crop is to be successful and acceptedby farmers. This fall the U of M, in collaborationwith the Agricultural Utilization Research Insti-tute, pressed their first small batch of oil from FPCgrown by the project. The researchers will conductlivestock and poultry feeding trials with the proteinremaining after oil extraction.
“With the pennycress we’re building the end-usecomponent as much or more than we are developingthe genomics,” said Wyse.
Developing new crops along with a processing andmarketing infrastructure takes a long time and isfraught with risks and pitfalls. Both field pennycress
development and the larger Forever Green Agricul-ture Initiative will take years of hard work and con-tinued public investment before they reach theambitious goals established for them, Wyse said.

The Forever Green Agricultural Initiative intendsto use the most advanced plant breeding technologyto improve farmers’ incomes, protect the state’swater and soil, and increase the quantity and qual-ity of wildlife habitat in rural Minnesota.
Using techniques developed by the publicly-fundedhuman genome project, University of Minnesotaplant breeding teams are rapidly and inexpensivelymapping the genomes of plants that can serve as bothcover crops and sources of additional farm income.
“A billion dollars was invested in mapping thehuman genome,” University of Minnesota Depart-ment of Agronomy and Plant Genetics professorDon Wyse said. “With what we learned from that wecan map a genome for $75,000. It has revolution-ized plant breeding. Five years ago the technologywas there but now the cost has come down dramat-ically. My team mapped the field pennycress
genome on a laptop computer for $75,000.”Mapping a genome allows plant breeders to deter-
mine if a plant has the traits that they are seeking.That helps eliminate a lot of trial and error thatpreviously had to be done in trial plots in the field.
“You can look at the DNA and determine if theone you’re looking at has the trait that you’re look-ing for,” said Wyse. “You do have to trial the one thathas the trait to see how it performs in the field butit really speeds things up. Not only can you look atindividual traits, but with the genome map you canlook at the full array of traits that you want.”
In addition to developing field pennycress, For-ever Green researchers are looking at another oilseed plant called camelina. They are also workingon intermediate wheatgrass, perennial sunflowersand hazelnuts. —Tim King

NorthStar Genetics, founded toraise and market soybean seed in1996, is celebrating its 20thanniversary and its growth to a$50 million business marketingsoybean seed in Minnesota, theDakotas, and most recently anexpansion into Canada.
Dan Hogstad is CEO of NorthStar Genetics andthe company’s first employee.
“We never thought it would grow at this rate andover such a large geography. Securing our RoundupReady license in the United States in 1996, and inCanada in 2004, has been the key to our success,”Hogstad said.
Originally NorthStar Genetics had 20 investors inMinnesota.
“We realized quite soon that we needed moreinvestors to cover more geography,” said Hogstad. “Wesecured the rights to sell shares in both North Dakotaand South Dakota. This immediately enlarged ourU.S. market footprint into what it is today.”
Using the business model that worked success-fully in the United States, NorthStar next secured alicense from Monsanto to market Roundup Readysoybeans throughout Canada.
“We identified successful, privately-owned seedconditioning facilities and they joined as sharehold-ers in our joint venture in Canada. The UnitedStates owns 51 percent of this venture, and it could-n’t have been a better fit for our future,” he said.
He indicated sales of RoundupReady soybeans in Canada haveexploded, due to early maturingsoybeans, and the technology thatbenefits growers no matter wherethey are.
“We currently are the marketshare leader in western Canada,and have a real active presence inQuebec as well. We are fortunate to
attract a large number of younger growers as dealersand that is very exciting going forward,” saidHogstad.Growing beans in Canada
Establishing brand recognition and a new productare the challenges of NorthStar Genetics in Canada.
“The response from Canadian producers has beengreat. It’s a new crop to many of those guys. Soteaching them how to raise soybeans has been funfor our dealers and great sport for me and otheragronomists within our organization,” says LyleMarcus, product manager from Olivia, Minn.
Canadian farmers are interested in adding a newcrop because diversity is often a key to financial suc-cess, explained Marcus.
“Because soybeans are a new crop to these guys itstarts with teaching them how to grow the crop andthen helping them figure out where to market thisnew crop. But you also include teaching on how tostore the crop and how to harvest soybeans,” saidMarcus.
“Don’t let the beans get too dry; don’t leave themstanding too long in the field. It’s all that fun stuffthat we guys with an agronomy background love to
teach to these new guys,” he said. “And they learnquickly.”
Marcus says Canadian producers swear by seedtreatments because their soils warm slower.
“We’re virtually marketing everything with a fun-gicide, also much with an insecticide seed treatment.Inoculants are big with the Canadian farmers. Theywant to increase nodulation on their soybean rootsand thus create its own nitrogen,” he said.
Maturities range from early to almost ultra-early.Relative maturities of 005s, 003s are typical alongthe Canadian border.
“We’ve also introduced a late triple 0 soybean. Testplot data is looking awesome so this new bean couldbe an ideal product,” Marcus said.
Marcus acknowledges the “big guys” are also in theCanadian market — DeKalb, Syngenta, DuPont Pio-neer — national brands that have a national adver-tising and promotion program.
“We have an advertising campaign also plus ourown magazine called Growing Soybeans which goesto as many growers as we can get on the mailinglist,” he noted.
Seed costs have to be competitive. For example,Manitoba has become a mature market so theemphasis must be on the value of your product, saidMarcus.
Canadian farmers are interested in the new herbi-cides that protect against weed resistance. Interestis strong in Extend and Enlist brands of soybeanswhich feature these new herbicides.
“Manitoba farmers are already seeing Roundupresistance water hemp. They know it’s going to keepcoming into more and more of their geography, too.They’re slow on going the residual herbicide route sowe’re doing some educating to help them understanda residual will play an important role when usingthese new technologies,” Marcus said.
“That generates some push back because of thehuge volume of acres that some of those guys run.Getting these residuals in place takes time whichthey don’t often have enough of each spring.”
The farm size is comparable to the large NorthDakota farms. That’s why bulk marketing vs. bagsare used by those northern producers. In fact, truebulk is rapidly becoming the accepted transfer fromseed dealer to all farmers.
“A dealer will have three to four bulk seed tanksholding upwards of 3,500 bushels (units). Say afarmer wants 1,000 units of seed. The dealer runs itthrough his seed treatment process directly into thefarmer’s truck and away he goes,” said Marcus.
In the soybean business a unit is 140,000 seeds,not 50 pounds like it used to be. Farmers can buyseeds by weight or count. Seed costs in relation tolast year are anywhere from $1.50 to $2 less, he said.
NorthStar Genetics is headquartered in Wanamingo,Minn. For 2016, the firm will be marketing 42 differ-ent soybean varieties in both Liberty Link and Genuitylabels and with RMs ranging from 00.5 to 2.2. Visitwww.northstargenetics.com to learn more. ❖

The seed industry is moreintense today, resulting in bet-ter product tomorrow. Thisobservation comes from BobThurston, who foundedThurston Genetics in 1993,after earlier years with TrojanSeed and RBA Seeds.
“In past years we in the U.S. seedindustry felt we had a corner on tech-nologies,” said Thurston. “But technol-ogy is a moving phenomenon anymore.It floats into other corners of the worldwhich in a matter of just a few yearshas made the world seed industrymore intense.”
Since 2001, Thurston Genetics hasbeen part of BASF Plant Science.
Thurston noted South American
countries have gotten into newsystems, technologies andbreeding to rapidly upgradetheir overall impact into worldseed markets.
“Europe still lags in accept-ing many of these technologiesand that is why getting some ofthese new seed products intothe European market is not yet
happening,” he said.Thurston said he thinks the European
reluctance is political and cultural.“There’s nothing scientific that says
they should stay where they’re at onthese genetic issues. The EU appar-ently both culturally and politicallyspeaking has chosen this path of notaccepting bio-technology. That’s theirchoice but we see no evidence to sup-port that mind frame,” he said.
In regards to China’s flip-flop behav-ior on genetically modified organism vs.non-GMO grains, Thurston chuckled.
“That nation has a most unpre-dictable mind set,” he said. “Yet to sus-tain their huge population they haveto import some of their foods andgrains. World stocks of seeds andgrains have built up considerably thepast few years so the supply anddemand equation is working againstU.S. products right now, as is thestronger value of our U.S. dollar.”Traits
In view of differing public opinionson the value of GMO hybrids,Thurston said he doubts the industrywill stop developing new traits.
“From a crop protection standpointwe’ve done extremely well in the plantscience world on all crops, but that
doesn’t mean we rest on our laurels.There’s always room for improve-ments,” he said. “The engines havebeen built; now it’s a matter ofimproving on them.
“You’ve got to come up with differ-ent traits primarily because MotherNature is always challenging us. Thatsaid, I think there will be some totallynew traits, like ‘energy traits’ thatincrease the feedstock value of thecrop for new uses we don’t yet visual-ize. Or more feed value traits such asconcentrating on higher proteins, orspecific amino acids, or perhaps evencertain pharmaceutical values whichpotentially might lessen the need fordrugs and medicine.”

Thanksgiving will soon be upon us. This holidaycauses me to reflect and be thankful for what Ihave. It also gets me thinking about what I take forgranted on a daily basis that others would be grate-ful to have. One example of this is food. I have
enough food, and sometimes too much, which cancause me to waste it at times.
The average daily food waste in the United Statesin 2010 was 1.18 pounds of food per person. Thisleaves us plenty of room for improvement! I am going
to approach Thanksgiving being mindful of howmuch food my family is preparing. I also plan to usethis holiday as an opportunity to reduce the amountof food we are wasting by following the tips below.
My four tips to reduce food waste at Thanksgiving:1. Consider purchasing a turkey breast rather than
an entire turkey. The turkey breast can be cooked ina shorter amount of time, is easier to cut and pre-pare, and results in fewer leftovers.
2. Keep your sides simple — less is more. Focus ontwo or three great side dishes rather than the “fullspread.” This will save you time and stress. Three ofmy favorite side dishes come from Spend Smart. EatSmart, a program of Iowa State University Exten-sion and Outreach:
• Zesty Whole Grain Salad: http://goo.gl/O28b8r• Easy Roasted Veggies: http://goo.gl/uReJMg• No Knead Whole Wheat Bread:
http://goo.gl/nGfUBF3. Pack up leftovers to eat later. For safety, left-
overs should be chilled to below 40 F within twohours of when they finish cooking. If your family willeat the leftovers within four days, store them in therefrigerator. If you will not, freeze them. Click herefor ideas for using that leftover turkey, pumpkin andchopped veggies.
4. Donate to those in need: Find your local foodbank, and donate excess or unused food to those inneed. Or even better yet, consider donating a few dol-lars to your local food bank or pantry. Have a happy,healthy Thanksgiving and enjoy doing more with less!

THURSTON, from pg. 15Aof the crop when planted in a farmer’sfield, explained Thurston. Farmersalso consider identity preservation inchoosing seeds. IP is the production,handling and marketing practicesthat maintain the integrity and purityof ag commodities.
“It’s a lot to ask of a farmer manag-ing a lot of acres,” he said. “However,that doesn’t mean we give up onincreasing feed values, whether forlivestock feed or human usage.”Crop management
With rising seed prices and morepublic discussions on non-GMO foods,Thurston sees a growing market in thedevelopment of non-GMO seeds espe-cially if depressed commodity marketprices remain.
“Growers are continually assessing
how they can reduce their total pro-duction costs on a unit basis. Theselower priced, non-GMO hybrids can beone alternative,” he said. “We’re seeingan increased demand for conventionalcorn hybrids. We don’t see this as amajor trend line but we recognize it forwhat it is and will position ourselvesin the market accordingly.”
Thurston pointed out the challengesof going into non-GMO crop production.
“It simply takes more total manage-ment. You’ll need a specific insecticideprogram; also weed control issues willbe more of a challenge. Basically you’lljust have to do a better job day by dayof observing and managing that cornand soybean crop,” he said.
Farmers are tremendously good atwhat they do these days and dronesand aerial imagery will make them
even better, explained Thurston.“But I think most sharp growers will
agree the traits that come with theirseed purchases are the umbrella theyneed for any potential slips in theirown strategies,” Thurston said.Global market
Thurston doubts there will be anincrease in U.S. corn acres for the 2016season, mostly due to efficiencies ofscale. Some growers are better at han-dling more acres, but some of thesedecisions are removed from growers.
“It’s what’s happening globally, espe-cially as it relates to exports of U.S.corn and soybeans. Energy too is a bigplayer. Some bio-traits get involvedbut mostly these perks are throughspecific genetics,” he said. “Alreadythere are hybrids in the marketplacethat are ‘energy driven’ because they
do produce a bit more alcohol.”As far as government intrusions in
the seed industry, it’s all relativeaccording to Thurston who travelsaround the world.
“Compared with other countries,we’re blessed in the United States,”said Thurston. “Our governmentworks with producers, with scientists,with us in the genetic world, witheducation and academics. I considerourselves fortunate and don’t foreseeany hurdles that we can’t overcome.”
Thurston acknowledges a handful ofmajor players control the world seedindustry, yet from a service, retail anddistribution point of view, there aremany brands in the marketplace thatimpact grower decisions.

Grain AnglesHigher yields,lower prices
U.S. Department of Agriculture reports werereleased Nov. 10. As always, these reports help shapefarmers’, end users’, and commodity traders’ opinionson the market price of corn and other grains oroilseeds. Corn yield across the United States rose 1.3bushels, to 169.3. This is the second-highest yield onrecord, and the third highesttotal U.S. corn production. Soy-beans, at just under four billionbushels, are also at a record levelof production for the UnitedStates.
Every producer likes to see bigyield numbers, however, the largeyield expectations have gener-ated lower prices. The USDA low-ered its corn farm price to $3.65on corn and $8.90 on soybeans forthe 2015 marketing year. Theseprices have caused some concernas the cost of production in manycases is much higher, resulting in losses.
We’ve been hearing a number of marketing profes-sionals talk about our cost of production. Why all thetalk?
To remain competitive in today’s market, under-standing how your costs stack up to the competitionmay help you make better management decisions.When we look at an individual’s farm cost, it’s impor-tant to look at them on a field-by-field basis or, atleast, by enterprise. If we do not know which fields orenterprises are making us money, how can we makedecisions on what to grow or what price we can affordto pay for rent?
Fortunately, many farmers’ cost of production was
Grain OutlookCrop report
bearishThe following market analysis is for the week
ending Nov. 13.CORN — Corn began the week on a negative note
of long liquidation prior to the U.S. Department ofAgriculture report, pushed to new contract lows onreport day, and spent the balance of the week consol-idating. The main feature of theweek was the Nov. 10 cropreport which turned out to bemuch more bearish than antici-pated. The 2015-16 balancesheet moved the corn yield to169.3 bushels per acre, up 1.3bu./acre from last month andjust 1.7 bu./acre under lastyear’s record 171 bu./acre. Pro-duction was increased 99 millionbushels to 13.654 billionbushels.
On the usage side, feed wasraised 25 million, ethanol wassurprisingly cut 75 million and exports weredropped by 50 million bushels for total demanddecline of 100 million bushels. Ending stocks wereup 199 million bushels from last month at 1.76 bil-lion bushels compared to a 1.731 billion bushel car-ryout in 2014-15. The on-farm average price was cutfrom $3.50-$4.10 to $3.35-$3.95 per bushel.
The ending stocks to use ratio at 12.9 percent wasa month-to-month increase of 1.6 percent. Worldending stocks at 211.9 million metric tons was wellabove the 188.4 mmt estimate and last month’s187.8 mmt number. The jump in world ending stockscame from the reduction in China’s domestic feeddemand of 17 mmt for 2014-15 and a cut in 2015-16feed demand of 7 mmt. China’s ending stocks rose
Livestock AnglesMeat prices
volatileThe one thing you can say about the livestock mar-
kets lately is there is no doubt that there is plenty ofvolatility in the price movement. For several weeksnow both hog and cattle prices have been all over theplace with an overall emphasis toward lower levels.There is no reason at this point to think that thisvolatility will not remain for theforeseeable future.
The cattle market is still in afierce battle between supply anddemand. At this juncture it wouldappear that the demand is theevident factor in the direction ofthe market. Demand for beef con-tinues to be weak despite the factthat the beef cutouts havedropped well off their highs. All ofthis price weakness despite thefact that cattle numbers are rela-tively tight.
It would seem that several factors will need tochange for the cattle market to become more stable.One thing is weights need to come down since theexcessive weights continue to keep beef productiontoo high which keeps the supply of beef more thanadequate for the weak demand. With the competitivemeats such as pork and chicken prices declining, thebeef prices need to come down to stay competitive inthis economic environment.
Therefore, producers should remain cognizant ofmarket factors and stay current as possible until thecattle market stabilizes.
The hog market has continued to slide basicallysince the May highs to lows not seen for severalyears. The problem has been that numbers of hogs

NYSTROM, from pg. 18Afrom 90.61 mmt to 114.44 mmt. South American pro-duction forecasts were a mixed bag. The USDA issetting Argentine corn production at 25.6 mmt. TheRosario Grain Exchange’s outlook for Argentina is20.2 mmt. The USDA is carrying Brazilat 81.5 mmt compared to Conab’s 82mmt forecast.
On the sorghum balance sheet,exports were lowered by 105 million bushels, whichcountered the 25-million-bushel increase infeed/residual and 85-million-bushel rise in Feed,Seed and Industrial. The larger use is expected toreplace corn in ethanol production.
Weekly export sales were delayed a day due to themid-week government holiday. Sales were at thehigh end of expectations at 24.4 million bushels forthis year and 900,000 bushels for next year. Thisyear’s sales are trailing last year by 30 percent whenthe USDA is forecasting a 3.5 percent decline inyear-on-year exports. We need to average 30.9 mil-lion bushels in sales every week for the remainder ofthe year to achieve the target, a number we’ve hitjust once this marketing year.
Reports surfaced this week that China may con-sider exporting corn this year to try to solve theirhuge corn surplus problem. There was also talk thatChina will not allow off-grade corn to enter thereserve, pushing it into the feed channel. China alsoplans to cut corn production by 2020 to 175 mmt,down from the current 229 mmt, and decreaseacreage by 20 percent.
The corn export line-up in Brazil is growing as theUnited States remains slightly uncompetitive toBrazil and Ukraine. However, there was talk thatsome corn could be switched from Brazil to theUnited States due to loading delays.
U.S. corn harvest as of Nov. 8 was 93 percent com-plete with Wisconsin still having 24 percent of theircorn to harvest, Nebraska 13 percent, Iowa sevenpercent, South Dakota 11 percent, and North Dakotawith nine percent still in the field.
Informa Economics released their 2016-17 plant-ing outlook indicating corn acres next spring at 90.1million acres, up 1.7 million acres from 2015-16.Their production outlook is 13.972 billion bushels,up 318 million bushels from this year’s 13.654 billionbushel crop. They are projecting next year’s yield at169.0 bu./acre vs. 169.3 bu./acre this year. Endingstocks for 2016-17 are expected at 1.8 billionbushels, up over 80 million bushels year-on-year.
OUTLOOK: December corn dropped 14 1⁄2 centsfor the week to settle at $3.58 1⁄4 per bushel with afresh contract low set at $3.56 per bushel. The Julycontract tumbled 16 3⁄4 cents to close at $3.77 andthe December 2016 contract plunged 13 3⁄4 lower toclose at $3.87 3⁄4 per bushel. This week’s sell-off wasinstigated by the bearish crop report after the mar-ket had been balancing weak demand vs. the need tokeep at least minimum bushels in the pipeline. Basislevels responded by firming, but country movementwas still just a trickle. It will eventually take somework by the board to improve flat prices to the pointwhere the grower becomes re-engaged in selling.
Next support under the contract lowin the December contract is $3.46 3⁄4
per bushel. Resistance is this week’s high at $3.751⁄2 per bushel. December options expire Nov. 20.Looking forward into next summer, any attempt overthe $4.00 level may be difficult to maintain as thattarget is expected to attract bushels to the market.
SOYBEANS — January soybeans closed lower forthe fourth week in a row after a bearish World Agri-cultural Supply and Demand Estimates crop report.After setting a new contract low at $8.50 per bushelon the outcome of the USDA crop report, it spent thebalance of the week within Wednesday’s tradingrange. The old adage of “big crops get bigger,” provedtrue when the USDA released the updated monthlycrop report. Balance sheet changes for 2015-16included a 1.1 bu./acre rise in yield to 48.3 bu./acreand a 93 million bushel addition to production to arecord 3.981 billion bushels. New record yields wereseen in Minnesota with 50 bu./acre, Iowa 56 bu./acreand Nebraska at 56 bu./acre.
On the usage side, the crush was upped 10 million,exports were raised 40 million to 1.715 billionbushels and residual usage grew by 3 million. Theresulting ending stocks were 53 million bushelshigher than last month at 465 million bushels. Astocks to use ratio of 12.4 percent is the highest since2006-07. The average on-farm price fell 25 cents onboth ends to $8.15-$9.65 per bushel. World endingsoybean stocks were 82.9 mmt compared to the pre-report guess of 85.2 mmt and last month’s 85.14mmt. Argentina’s and Brazil’s 2015-16 productionestimates were left alone at 57 mmt and 100 mmtrespectively. Conab pegged Brazil’s crop in a recordrange of 101.2 to 102.8 mmt.
U.S. growers remain on the sidelines after thesharp sell-off and Argentine farmers are waiting tosee the results of the Nov. 22 presidential run-offelection to sell. The leading candidate MauricioMacri seems determined to erase the 23 percent cornexport tax, end export quotas and to cut the soybeanexport tax to 30 percent in 2016 and by five percent
per year thereafter. Brazilian bean planting was 50percent complete as of Nov. 13 and Argentina at 20percent complete with no red weather flags flying.
Weekly export sales were above expectations thisweek at 47.7 million bushels for this year and900,000 bushels for next year. We are running 20percent behind last year’s pace when the USDA’soutlook is for a 6.9 percent year-to-year decrease.We need 15.9 million bushels of sales per week tomake the USDA projection. Flash USDA sales toChina this week totaled 426,000 metric tons. Thetrucker strike in Brazil that began Nov. 9 is notexpected to last long. Some truckers were beingissued tickets for blocking roads, with fines tripled.Late in the week, there were only four blockedroads compared with 20 when the strike began.
Informa Economics’ latest soybean plantedacreage number for 2016-17 is a record 85.3 millionacres, up 2.1 million acres from this year. They arepegging production next year at 3.946 billionbushels, down from 35 million from this year’s 3.981billion bushel crop. They are using a yield of 46.7bu./acre, down from this year’s 48.3 bu./acre.
OUTLOOK: Soybeans need to balance thinpipelines with the knowledge the world has plentyof supply. Unless South America has a crop threat,upside may be limited and a lower leaning marketis probable. Domestic basis should remain strong toattract nearby supplies. January soybeans settledthe week at $8.55 1⁄4 per bushel, down 12 cents, theJuly contract at $8.68 1⁄4 was down 12 1⁄4 cents forthe week and November 2016 soybeans dropped 51⁄4 cents to $8.74 per bushel. November soybeansexpired on Nov. 13 at $8.59 per bushel. The OctoberNOPA crush report will be released on Nov. 16 withthe average estimate at 161 million bushels. Themarket is due for some degree of upside correctionwith first resistance at $8.72 and support at thecontract low at $8.50 per bushel, then $8.43 perbushel. For now, the threat of increased bean salesby Argentine farmers after the Nov. 22 electionsmay act as a limiting factor in any rally.
Nystrom’s notes: Contract changes for the week end-ing Nov. 13: December Chicago wheat crashed 27 1⁄2cents lower, Minneapolis retreated 14 1⁄2 cents lowerand Kansas City collapsed 24 3⁄4 cents lower. Decem-ber crude oil plunged $3.55 to $40.74, ultra-low-sul-fur diesel declined nearly 11 cents, reformulatedblendstock for oxygenate blending fell 13 cents andnatural gas was down just a penny for the week. ❖
January soybeans close lower for fourth week
LENSING, from pg. 18Alowered by an increase in yields. For example, if yourAPH is 180 and your costs of producing one bushel ofcorn is $4.15 a bushel or $747 per acre, what hap-pens in a year like 2015 where you might average200-bushel corn? Assuming costs are still $747 peracre and 200 bushels, your new cost of production is$3.74.

With theincreased supply of porkavailable, there was nowhere to go but to lowerprices paid for live inventory by the packers.
However, as hog numbers available for slaughterdecline, and with pork prices at lower levels in thesupermarket as compared to beef prices, one wouldsurmise that demand for pork will remain very good.With profit margins narrowing for producers, onewould suspect that the expansion of hog numberswill tighten in the months ahead.
The major problem for any long-term, sustainedrallies will be the underlying economy. This couldretard any major rallies in the hog market in theyear ahead.
Producers should remain cognizant of market con-ditions and protect inventories as needed. ❖

This column was written for themarketing week ending Nov. 13.
The U.S. Department of Agriculturebean counters reduced their 2015 and2016 milk production estimate in thelatest World Agricultural Supply andDemand Estimates report as “thedairy herd is expected to decline morerapidly from its second-quarter peakand growth in milk per cow in 2015remains slower than expected.”
Production and marketings for 2015were forecast at 208.7 billion poundsand 207.7 billion pounds respectively.Both are down 200 million poundsfrom last month’s report. If realized,2015 production and marketingswould be up 2.7 million pounds or 1.3percent from 2014.
Production and marketings for 2016are projected at 212.9 and 212 billion
pounds respectively, bothdown 100 million poundsfrom last month. If realized,2016 production and mar-ketings would be up 4.2million pounds or 2.0 per-cent from 2015.
Imports were reduced onboth a fat and skim-solidsbasis for both years asimports of milk protein con-centrates and casein areexpected to be lower. Exportswere reduced for 2015 onweaker butter, cheeseand whey sales.
“Largely uncompetitive prices arelikely to limit growth in export sales ofbutter and to a lesser extent, cheese in2016,” USDA says, “and fat basedexports were reduced. Strong domestic
demand for butter isexpected to support rela-tively high butter prices dur-ing the remainder of 2015,but supplies are expected tobe large, and the price fore-cast for 2016 was lowered.”
Cheese prices were loweredfor 2015 and 2016 as sup-plies remain large. The non-fat dry milk price wasreduced for 2015 and 2016 asprices move closer to inter-
national levels. Wheyprices were unchangedfrom last month.
Class III milk prices were lowered for2015 and 2016 reflecting the lower 2015cheese price forecasts. Look for the 2015Class III price to average around$15.80 per hundredweight, down fromthe $15.95 projected a month ago andcompares to the record $22.34 in 2014and $17.99 in 2013. The 2016 average isnow pegged at around $15.15, down anickel from last month’s prediction.
The Class IV milk price was raisedfor 2015 due to the stronger forecastbutter price which more than offsetsthe lower NDM price. However, the2016 Class IV price forecast was low-ered as cheese and NDM forecastswere reduced.
The Class IV is expected to average$14.20 in 2015, up from $13.95 projecteda month ago, and compares to $22.09 in2014 and $19.05 in 2013. The 2016 ClassIV average is put at $14.35, down a dimefrom last month’s expectation.

USDA’s Crop Production report fore-cast corn output to hit 13.7 billionbushels, up less than one percent fromthe October forecast, but down four per-cent from last year’s record. Based onNov. 1 conditions, yields are expected toaverage 169.3 bushels per acre, up 1.3bushels from the October forecast but1.7 bushels below the 2014 average. Ifrealized, this will be the second highestyield and third largest production onrecord for the United States. Area har-vested for grain was forecast at 80.7million acres, unchanged from Octoberbut down three percent from 2014.
Soybean production is forecast at arecord 3.98 billion bushels, up two per-cent from October and up one percentfrom last year. Based on Nov. 1 condi-tions, yields are expected to average48.3 bushels per acre, up 1.1 bushelsfrom last month and up 0.8 bushel fromlast year. Area for harvest in the UnitedStates is forecast at 82.4 million acres,unchanged from last month’s report.
Cotton production is forecast at 13.3million 480-pound bales, down less thanone percent from last month and down 19percent from last year. Yield is expectedto average 782 pounds per harvestedacre, down 56 pounds from last year.
FC Stone’s Dave Kurzawski says theCrop Production report was “bearishfor both corn and soybeans with yieldand production exceeding averagetrade guesses. U.S. and world corn car-ryout is also weighing.”
Penn State’s James Dunn wrote in hislatest Dairy Outlook that “Soybean mar-kets have changed very little becausethe harvest has progressed smoothly formost of the 2105 crop. The corn markethas dropped a bit. World production ofboth was good this year, with no sub-stantive changes since last year.”
“The world’s economies are mostlystagnant,” Dunn said, “with China andSouth Asia in the doldrums, the Euro-pean Union struggling, and variouslocal issues around the globe. PennState’s measure of income over feedcosts fell by 0.4 percent in October, asfeed prices rose by more than milkprices, which rose by 1.1 percent.
“October’s feed cost is 17 cents percow per day more than in September.October’s value for IOFC of $7.49 percow per day is slightly below the Sep-tember value of $7.52, which was thehighest in 2015. Income over feed costreflects daily gross milk income lessfeed costs for an average cow producing65 pounds of milk per day.
“The milk margin is the estimatedamount of the Pennsylvania all milkprice that remains after feed costs perhundredweight of milk production arepaid. Like income over feed cost, thismeasure shows that the October Penn-sylvania milk margin was 0.4 percentlower than in September,” Dunn writes.

Kurzawski warned in hisNov. 9 Early Morning Update that“hefty supplies matched against onlygood, but not remarkable, domesticcheese demand in October gave way toa somewhat lower trajectory to spotpricing to end last month. From a his-torical perspective, if the price of cheeseis falling, even modestly so at the end ofNational Pizza Month, it stands to rea-son more price weakness could be inthe cards for the balance of the year.”
Dairy Market News reports that Mid-west cheese production is steady. Foodservice and pizza demand is robust.Many cheese makers are seeing naturalcheese varieties leave their facilitieswithout going into inventory. A new bar-rel cheese facility is scheduled to comeonline in southwestern Wisconsin within
the next month.Western cheese
production is activewith milk readily available. Retail andfood service demand for block cheese isstrong. Cheese makers say they are notbuilding inventories of these types.Demand for cheese barrels has alsobeen relatively good, but some manu-facturers mention inventories are long.

MIELKE, from pg. 23Aloads of cream to produce enough butter for immedi-ate needs. Although domestic demand is still good,some butter makers are seeing a slight decrease asthe Thanksgiving holiday gets closer and retailorders get filled.
■
FC Stone’s Kurzawski said in Friday’s DairyLine
that butter demand is strong, whilesupply is “kind of weak,” at least forDouble A salted butter. He added thateven whole milk sales are up, which is lowering thefat supply, plus milk production is down in Califor-nia, where a lot of butter is produced, so he believesthe price will remain strong through Thanksgiving.
As to cheese, Kurzawski said there’s plenty of milk
in the cheese producing areas butdemand remains relatively intact.Prices have been up and down, he
said, “so this isn’t anything new,” though he specu-lates if prices fell to the $1.30 or $1.40s, that wouldbe new territory for the year but he doesn’t expectthat. He said we saw a bit of a pullback this weekbut he thinks it’s possible for a bounce to the upsidenext week or after Thanksgiving.
Looking globally, Fonterra reported earlier in the weekthat it is removing another 20,000 tons (5.14 percent) ofNFDM from the 12-month forecasted volumes to beoffered on the GDT, dropping the volume to 369,380tons. Fonterra blamed expected milk collections fromtheir farmers to be down five percent for the season.
When asked if that will be bullish for Tuesday’sGDT, Kurzawski said, while a previous reduction inAugust was bullish, he’s not sure it will do that thistime, but he does expect a little more stability. Hesaid it’s worth noting that Fonterra believes milkproduction will be down that much.
“It’s not a reason for the prices to go up a whole lotright now,” he concluded, “because we have a lot ofinventory globally, but it will probably slow any kindof decline.”
Spot Grade A nonfat dry milk finished at 80 centsper pound, down a penny on the week and 38 centsbelow a year ago. Three cars were sold this week.

On farm milk production is variable throughoutthe country, according to Dairy Market News. Floridaproducers report unseasonably warm temperaturesare moderating the usual strong start to the newproduction season, but milk production is increasing.Texas and New Mexico output is also on the rise.Producers and processors in the balance of the coun-

MIELKE, from pg. 24Atry indicate milk intakes are steady.
Bottled milk demand is unchanged tohigher, with some retailers increasingorders to fulfill in-store specials.Processors are starting production ofseasonal items, such as specialty fla-vored milk and eggnog, which will con-tinue to draw on milk supplies throughthe holidays. Cream interest is strongfor production of sour and aeratedcream products, seasonal frozendessert items, and butter.
Dairy Market News also reports thatdairy cow slaughter under federalinspection the last week of Octobertotaled 59,200 head, up 8.03 percentfrom the same period a year ago. Year-to-date slaughter, at 2.46 million head,is up 3.9 percent from 2014.

The California Department of Foodand Agriculture announced its Decem-ber Class I milk price at $18.33 perhundredweight for the north and$18.60 for the south. Both are up 65cents from November but are $5.39below December 2014.
The northern 2015 Class I average is$17.69, down from $24.76 a year agoand $20.29 in 2013. The southern aver-age is $17.96. The December Federalorder Class I base price will beannounced by USDA on Nov. 18.
Speaking of California prices, you’llrecall last week I reported the October 4b
cheese milk price wasdown 19 cents from Sep-
tember, $6.19 below Octo-ber 2014, and 71 cents below the Federalorder Class III despite the adjustment onwhey mandated by the CaliforniaDepartment of Food and Agriculture.
The Milk Producers Council’s RobVandenheuvel pointed out in his Nov. 6newsletter that the October 4b pricewas actually 25 cents/cwt. lower underthe temporary adjustment than itwould have been had CDFA not acted.
He explains that “Under the previouscalculation, there was a ceiling and afloor in the dry whey portion of the 4bprice. In other words, the calculationmade sure that dry whey market prices
never impacted the Class 4b finalprice by: 1) more than 75 cents/cwt.; or2) less than 25 cents/cwt.
The new temporary calculation ofthe Class 4b price still contains a ceil-ing and a floor, but the ceiling is at$2.005/cwt. and the floor is at $0/cwt.
“While many folks might not havenoticed this change in the floor at thetime, dry whey prices have signifi-cantly dropped this year, even sincethe hearing results were announced inJuly,” he wrote.

Most farm operators have receivedtheir checks from the U.S. Department ofAgriculture Farm Service Agency for the2014 County-based Agricultural RiskCoverage farm program. Farm operatorsthat have land in multiple counties, buthandle all of their FSA work administra-tively through one county, may have anadditional decision to make by Feb. 1,2016. This decision will likely only affecta small percentage of producers; however,it could be a very important decision forthose that are affected.
A few years ago, FSA allowed farmoperators that had farm units withFSA crop bases in multiple countiesto do all of their FSA administrativework in one county, rather than in two or morecounties. Additionally, some county FSA offices havebeen closed in recent years, requiring a shift in thedesignation of FSA administrative counties forsome producers. When the 2014 and 2015 farm pro-grams were rolled out, the decision was made thatall potential farm program payments would bemade on the basis of the FSA administrative county,rather than on the basis of the county where theFSA farm unit and crop base acres are located.
The decision to administer farm program pay-ments on the basis of a FSA administrative countyhas created some issues for affected farm operators,due to the fact that 2014 ARC-CO payments arebased on county-level 2014 corn and soybean yields,compared to county benchmark yields. Every countyhas an independent calculation for determiningpotential ARC-CO payments. This same scenariowill exist for the 2015-18 crop years as well. In theUnited States, 93 percent of the corn base acres and97 percent of the soybean base acres are enrolled in
the ARC-CO program optionFarm operators who have had their
2014 ARC-CO payments negativelyaffected by the choice of their FSA
administrative county, have until Feb. 1, 2016, torequest FSA re-calculate their 2014 FSA paymentson the basis of the physical location of each FSAfarm unit. These requests will be made through localFSA offices. Producers can also request a change incalculation for the 2015 crop year, and any potential2015 ARC-CO payments, which will be paid in Octo-ber 2016.
Following are details to consider regarding poten-tial re-calculation of ARC-CO payments.Only a small percentage of farm operators areaffected by this change.
The only producers that are affected by this changein FSA policy for 2014 are those that have FSA farmunits in multiple counties under a single FSAadministrative county, where there was a differencein the 2014 ARC-CO payment among the affectedcounties.
The following farm operators would not be affectedby this change:
• Producers with all of their FSAfarm units in one county.
• Producers with farm units in mul-tiple counties and separate FSAadministrative offices.
In addition, there would be noadvantage to farm operators with FSAfarm units in multiple counties to re-calculate the 2014 ARC-CO payments,if the chosen FSA administrativecounty already had the highest pay-ment rate, which was applied to allthe acres of a specific crop.
Situations that may be beneficial for 2014 FSAARC-CO re-calculations:
• Variation in ARC-CO payments from county tocounty based on 2014 yields.
This will be the most common situation where a re-calculation of ARC-CO payments would berequested, where one county is receiving a fairlylarge 2014 ARC-CO payment, while the neighboringcounty is receiving little or no 2014 ARC-CO pay-ment. The county level ARC-CO payments are deter-mined by price and yield variation. The price varia-tion is calculated on a national basis, based on the2014 market year average price, which is comparedto five-year benchmark price, and is the same in allcounties in the United States. The yield variation iscalculated on a county-specific basis, based on howthe actual 2014 County yield, compared to the five-year county benchmark yield, which leads to thevariation in ARC-CO payments from county tocounty.

THIESSE, from pg. 26Ayield of 43 bu./acre; 91 percent ofbenchmark yield — Resulting 2014ARC-CO payment = $46 per soybeanbase acre
County B: Benchmark yield of 47bu./acre; 2014 yield of 52 bu./acre;121 percent of benchmark yield —Resulting 2014 ARC-CO payment = $0
If a farm operator had 300 soybeanbase acres in each county, and hadCounty A as a FSA administrativecounty, they would have received the$46 per soybean base acre 2014 ARC-CO payment on all 600 soybean baseacres; however, if they had County Bas an administrative county, theywould have received no 2014 ARC-CO
payment on any soy-bean base acres. If thefarm operator hadCounty B as an administrative county,requesting FSA to re-calculate the2014 ARC-CO payments, would allowthat farm operator to receive the 2014soybean ARC-CO on the soybean baseacres in County A, or $13,800. Therewould still be no ARC-CO payments onsoybean base acres in County B.
This example is not likely to affectcorn payments as much as soybeanpayments in Minnesota and otherparts of the Upper Midwest, since mostcounties received the maximum 2014ARC-CO payment. This example willlikely affect corn payments inNebraska, Illinois, Indiana, and other
Eastern Corn Beltstates, where 2014 corn
yields where higher andmore variable.
• Variation in maximum paymentlevels from county to county.
As mentioned, farm operators inmany counties in Minnesota and otherUpper Midwest states received themaximum level of ARC-CO paymentson their corn base acres for 2014; how-ever, there was a difference in what themaximum payment level was fromcounty to county, which could affect thetotal ARC-CO payments that a pro-ducer received.
Assume that County A received $75per corn base acre 2014 ARC-CO pay-ment, while County B (neighboringcounty) received $67 per corn baseacre. If the farm operator had 500 acresof corn base acres in each county, andhad County A as an administrativecounty, they would have received $75per corn base acre on all 1,000 acres.However, if they had County B as anadministrative county, they received$67 per corn base acre on the entire
1,000 acres. If the farm operator hadCounty B as an administrative county,requesting FSA to re-calculate the2014 ARC-CO payments, would allowthat farm operator to receive an addi-tional $8 per corn base acre on the baseacres in County A, or a total of $4,000.There would be no additional cornARC-CO payments in County B.The decision will be for all cropsand for all affected FSA farm units.
Farm operators cannot select certaincrops or certain FSA farm units for re-calculation of 2014 ARC-CO payments.If a producer has corn, soybean, andwheat base acres, all crops will beaffected. It is important to keep that inmind when calculating the potentialbenefits from the re-calculation of farmprogram payments. There could be again of payments for one crop and aloss of payments for another crop.Farm operators cannot switchtheir FSA administrative county orchange farm units.

See THIESSE, pg. 29A
THIESSE, from pg. 28Acan make is to have the 2014 and2015 ARC-CO payments re-calculatedbased on the physical location of the individual farmunits. They cannot switch administrative counties,and they cannot reconstitute (split apart) their farmunits. These choices can be made for the 2016-18crop years at certain times that are specified by FSAoffices.The 2014 decision to re-calculate ARC-CO pay-ments is separate and independent from the2015 decision.
Farm operators could decide to have their 2014ARC-CO payments re-calculated, but not their 2015ARC-CO payments, or vice versa. The situations for2014 and 2015 ARC-CO payments are somewhat dif-ferent, so farm operators should analyze the situa-tion quite carefully.The decision to re-calculate potential 2015ARC-CO payments is much more variable.
Similar to the 2014 crop year, there will likely besignificant corn and soybean ARC-CO payments inmany areas of the United States, due to the expectedlower 2015 MYA prices, compared to the 2015 cornand soybean benchmark prices, which will be thesame as 2014. Once again for 2015, there will likelybe a big difference from county to county in the levelof potential 2015 ARC-CO payments for corn andsoybeans, depending on the final 2015 actual yieldscompared to the five-year benchmark yields. Theproblem is that we will not know the final 2015county average yields until late February or earlyMarch, 2016, which is after the Feb. 1, 2016, deadline
to request re-calculation of the 2015ARC-CO payments.A producer can find out the 2015
benchmark yields for corn and soybeans, which willbe used to calculate 2015 ARC-CO payments, andwill be used to determine maximum payment levels.The safest choice for 2015 is probably to request thatthe crop base acres be re-calculated based on thephysical location of the land, unless a farm operatoris fairly certain that the administrative county willhave a lower 2015 yield than the other counties thathave FSA crop base acres.All eligible persons receiving farm programpayments must agree to the decision to re-cal-culate ARC-CO payments on FSA farm units.
In most cases, this will not be an issue for 2014ARC-CO payments, since the advantage of re-calcu-lating the payments is fairly straight-forward. Thedecision could be a bit more tricky for 2015 ARC-COpayments where there is significantly more uncer-tainty.
The bottom line is that the decision to re-calculate2014 and 2015 ARC-CO payments will not affect alarge percentage of farm operators. However, forthose producers that are affected, it is a very impor-tant decision that could have a significant financialimpact, especially on 2014 ARC-CO payments. Farmoperators are encouraged to contact their local FSAoffice for more details.

The Nuhn Lagoon Crawler is an amphibious vehicle designed for agitating lagoons.
The wheels are able to drop down, giving the vehicle roughly 5 feet of ground clearance. The unit then drives itself into a lagoon,
where it turns into an agitation boat.
When in the lagoon, the Lagoon Crawler is powered by a quad port, Nuhn Header Series manure pump. 10000+GPM volumes are used to maneuver
the pontoon through the lagoon and agitate the solids from the bottom. The Nuhn Lagoon Crawler does not need a priming system.
Once the lagoon is emptied, the four wheels are lowered and the machine is able to drive itself out of the lagoon.

ST. LOUIS, Mo. — Applications are now beingaccepted for the 2016 America’s Farmers Grow AgLeaders program. Sponsored by the MonsantoFund, the program will provide over $500,000 incollege scholarships across rural America nextspring to support the next generation of agricul-ture. Last year, Minnesota students were awardednearly $29,000 in scholarships.
Under the program, now in its second year, $1,500scholarships are awarded to high school and collegestudents pursuing ag-related degrees. Becausefarmers are the heart of the industry, applicantsmust obtain endorsements from at least three localfarmers to be considered.
Grow Ag Leaders is designed to encourage ruralyouth to remain in agriculture and to help themdevelop the skills needed to fill thousands of jobs ina variety of fields — including farming, agronomy,education, engineering, business management andmany more.
Many of the past recipients are not waiting untilafter they graduate to begin their ag careers.Instead, they are already actively engaged in theirfield of interest. Examples include a future agricul-ture teacher who developed an agri-science camp toeducate her peers on ag literacy and a farm andranch management major who maintains 240 acresof wheat while earning his degree.
Bethany Erickson of Roseau, Minn., stays involvedin her family’s farm while she is pursuing her degreeat North Dakota State University and is excited tobegin her career in agronomy.
“What I like most about agriculture is that it is anabsolute necessity for everyone,” said Erickson.“With our growing population, it’s increasinglyapparent that the industry is more important thanever and I want to be a part of its future. I played anintegral role on my family farm growing up. Thatexperience ignited my passion for ag. ”
With 57,900 average annual job openings in agricul-ture and only 35,400 college graduates expected to fillthem, there is a great opportunity for students consid-ering careers in this rapidly growing industry. GrowAg Leaders depends on farmer participation to helpidentify talented young people for those positions.
Since 2014, the Grow Ag Leaders program has awardedover $600,000 in scholarships to rural students across the
country. Recipients are chosen based on academicachievement, leadership skills, community service andcommitment to agriculture. Scholarships are adminis-tered by the National FFA Organization, but applicantsneed not be FFA members to apply. Nov. 15 through Feb.1, 2016, students can apply online at FFA.org/scholar-ships. For more information, visit GrowAgLeaders.com,and follow them on Facebook,Twitter and Instagram.
Grow Ag Leaders is part of the America’s Farmersinitiative. Since 2010, the America’s Farmers cam-paign and programs have advocated on behalf offarmers and their efforts to meet society’s needsthrough agriculture. The America’s Farmers cam-paign highlights the importance of modern U.S. agri-culture through communications and communityoutreach programs that partner with farmers toimpact rural America.

College scholarships available for Minnesota ag leaders
MANKATO, Minn. — The AgStar Fund for RuralAmerica has awarded a $30,000 grant to the Min-nesota Working Lands Conservation Partnership inan effort to help improve profitability, productivityand environmental outcomes for farmers and com-munities in three to five key watersheds. This part-nership puts farmers at the forefront to drive posi-tive change in the food and agriculture system.
“AgStar is proud to support and launch this initia-
tive with AgriGrowth and AGree,” said Rod Hebrink,President and CEO of AgStar Financial Services.“This initiative provides the tools for our client pro-ducers to develop and understand watershed tech-nologies, data and best practices.”
The MWLCP will select several key pilot water-sheds in Minnesota over the coming months. Part-ners will focus on engaging farmers and the supplychain on a watershed level to develop grassrootssolutions to water quality concerns, establishingmetrics for measuring sustainability, and position-ing farmers to increase on-farm productivity. TheMWLCP will work collectively at the watershed levelto understand natural resource systems and howthey respond to agronomic practices, systems andtechnologies. This initiative is producer-led, water-shed-based, and supply chain focused.
AgStar’s corporate giving program, the AgStarFund for Rural America, awards grants to organiza-tions or programs that support its mission of“enhancing life in agriculture and rural America”.MWLCP’s plan to put a watershed initiative in thehands of farmers to drive meaningful improvementsin water quality does just that.
“This grant is a great opportunity for the Agri-Growth Council to kick off this work in partnershipwith AGree,” said Joe Martin, MWLCP Project Direc-tor. “We are grateful for this investment by AgStar,as we launch this project to develop grassroots solu-tions to water quality issues at a local level, andexamine sustainability and on-farm profitability.”
Since its inception in 2001, the AgStar Fund hasdonated over $5 million to organizations in communi-ties that work to improve the future of rural America.AgStar Financial Services, ACA, headquartered inMankato, is part of the national Farm Credit System.
Since 2011, AGree has met with and convened morethan 2,000 leaders in food and agriculture andrelated sectors to better understand the challengesand opportunities facing the food and agriculture sys-tem. Visit www.foodandagpolicy.org to learn more.

Minneopa State Park,Mankato, Minn.
America bison once roamedacross most of Minnesota.According to the Minnesota
Department of Natural Resources,bison herds numbered between 30and 60 million head in NorthAmerica. Hunted to near extinc-tion by the late 1800s, the lastwild bison observed in Minnesotawas in Norman County in 1880.
Now you can see the magnificentbeasts once again at MinneopaState Park in Blue Earth County.On Sept. 25, 11 genetically rarebison were released into the parkin an effort to expand the Min-nesota Conservation Bison Herd.
Minnesota DNR and the Min-nesota Zoo are working together topreserve the American bison. Theherd will be grown from the 90-bison herd at Blue Mounds StatePark near Luverne, Minn., wherebison were reintroduced in 1961,to 500 head.
These bison are consideredgenetically rare because testingshows they are free of geneticmaterial from cross-breeding withcattle. Of the more than 500,000bison in North America, less than30,000 fit in this category.
The bison at Minneopa StatePark include cow-calf pairs andyearling bison heifers; some of thecows are bred and will calve nextspring. Eventually the herd willgrow to 30-40 bison, according tothe DNR.
Minneopa State Park is locatedoff U.S. Highway 169 and StateHighway 68, five miles west ofMankato. You can drive throughthe bison range to view the bison.Bison Drive winter hours are 9a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Wednesday-Sun-day or as staffing allows. BisonDrive will be closed on winter holi-days and during weather eventslike heavy rain or snowfall. Gatesclose daily at 3:30 p.m. sharp.

One of the first things a farmfamily learns is that they needto stockpile the cash reserves— if there are any — wheneverthey can. Sooner or later we allfind out that livestock andgrain prices can fall. They canfall hard and they can fall fast.
We first experienced thecrunch in the 1990s when hogprices went through the floor.When examining the bills andthe checkbook, there was noquestioning that we had to cutback. One of the first things that had to go was hair-cuts in town.
I had never cut anyone’s hair. The very thought ofdoing it myself was a little hair-raising, but I figuredif my husband wasn’t afraid of looking like LyleLovett did back then, I should not fear the processeither. And so I plowed ahead.
I took our two toddler sons to town to get their lastpaid hair cut from a professional. I brought bags of fruitsnacks with me because, of course, they needed some-thing to occupy themselves since they couldn’t pretendto be farming while they were sitting in the chair.
The barber clipped and visited while I watched whathe was doing. I paid the man, said good-bye and leftthere for the last time, hoping I had it figured out.
Our boys were small enough that their first hair-cuts were in booster chairs on top of the kitchentable. A towel and clothespin served as the haircutapron, and a package of fruit snacks deemed themoblivious to what was really going on. (It seemed abetter option than a hairy lollipop.)
Of course our sons, being very young farm children,loved to talk about the farm. One of them, in his veryyoung home haircut days, watched as I put the clip-per head on the clipper and told me, “That looks likea corn head.”
Well, of course it did.Right from the mind of a farm kid; to this day
when I put it on the clipper, I always think of it look-ing like a corn head.
The home haircuts continued over the years and theymoved off of the kitchen table. A few years later whenthat same son got a little older and it was time forprom, he once again found himself in the home barber’schair. We were chatting and catching up on his life —when I dropped the clippers onto the cement floor.
“That thing better still work,” he said firmly, imagin-ing having to face his prom date with half of a haircut.
Luckily for all of us, it did keep working.The years have passed, and I have visited with all
of our guys about the farm and their dreams; I’veheard and talked about their problems, and laughedand listened to their jokes and life stories they haveshared with me. I look forward to that one-on-onetime spent together.
Recently our sons came over for their post-harvest’do. The back door popped open and I heard a famil-iar voice yelling, “Mom? Is the barber shop open?”
It’s the one good thing I can attribute to the hogmarket decline of the 1990s. Lack of funding mademe hone a new skill and, in exchange, it gave back to
me more than I ever imagined in terms of cultivatingimportant relationships. It happened 20 minutes at atime and all it cost us was a hair clipper. I have beentruly grateful. There are lessons in hard times.
These days I spend time hoping their haircuts
don’t look like a corn head actually did the job.Maybe it’s why they all wear their caps so faithfully.

TABLE TALK
By Karen Schwaller
What makes your pet happy?Throw a toy, and find out. Go for a
run, sneak a snack, sit quietly withwarm blanket and firm scratch, evenwatching TV can put a smile onScruffy’s face because it’s all aboutbeing with you. But if you still needideas, “Do Unto Animals” by TraceyStewart has them for you.
If it’s possible, Stewart loved ani-mals before she was even born: pic-tures exist of her heavily-pregnantmother with family pets. Animalsalways surrounded Stewart and whenshe was a child, she wondered if shecould make a living through her loveof them. After a few life-detours —including different jobs and men otherthan the one she’s married to now —she does.
A dog was Stewart’s first love; hewas a rescue bully-breed but she saysshe’s not sure who rescued who, inthis situation. A dog has always been“my four-footed soother, my crutch …
my confidant, my best friend…”“If guardian angels really exist, mine
don’t have wings. They have waggingtails, soft pink bellies, and terriblebreath,” she wrote.
Though allergic, Stewart has loved acat or four. She can’t live with themcomfortably — she’s tried! So instead,
her children act as cham-pions of cats needinghomes. And that’s a goodway to help animals; if youcan’t have one, virtuallyadopt one.
Just because an animaldoesn’t sleep in your housedoesn’t mean there’s nothing you cando for it. Your backyard is full of whatStewart calls “The Landscaping Team,Pest Control Team and Cleanup Crew.”And if you live on or near a farm, shesays you should visit a barn often.Cows and pigs are no dummies, andthere’s a lot to learn on the back (orfront) of a horse.
Other things you can do for animals— learn animal massage. Visit a shel-ter and adopt a mutt. Don’t believeeverything you’re told about pit bullsor black cats. Remember that bugs and
worms are friends. Know how to helpan injured animal. And this year,change a tradition; your family’s holi-day menu doesn’t have to have aturkey on it.
It’s a good thing animals can’t buybooks. We should all be glad they can’tread, either, because if they could,they’d want to go live with authorTracey Stewart.
But here’s the thing: there really isn’tanything new inside “Do Unto Ani-mals” — it’s just all framed differently.Lovers of the four-footed already knowhow to pet a dog well. We’re aware ofspay-neuter programs, that bees aredying off, and that livestock have per-sonalities. Here, though, Stewartreminds us of these things in a shoul-der-bumping, almost affectionate way.And besides, it’s hard not to be thor-oughly smitten with an author whomakes up dog breeds.
A “White-Bibbed Snuggler,” indeed.For animal lovers, “Do Unto Animals”
is an easy, enjoyable read — maybe atwice-read. It might teach you some-thing, and if it doesn’t, well, so what?This book about making contented crit-ters will make you pretty happy, too.
Look for the reviewed book at a book-store or a library near you. You mayalso find the book at online book retail-ers.
The Bookworm is Terri Schlichen-meyer. Terri has been reading since shewas 3 years old and never goes any-where without a book. She lives in Wis-consin with three dogs and 10,000books. ❖
Animal lover shares wisdom on contented critters
